Being fast is a terrific asset to have but for rookie RB Pierre Strong Jr., being able to do everything in the New England Patriots’ backfield will ultimately decide how much he plays in 2022.
As it currently stands, heading into training camp, the Patriots already take with them a pretty crowded backfield. However, it’s also a group that certainly has some big question marks.
Starter Damien Harris is in a contract year and will likely again handle the lion’s share of the carries this season. Rhamondre Stevenson will also be a big part of things, with the only question being how much of the snaps he splits with Harris as he potentially gets set to take over that role if Harris moves on after this year.
